Reviews

Field mice are supposed to spend the winter burrowing and huddling underground, but little Lucy would rather be out in the bracing cold. She cant convince her mouse friends to join her, until she finds a way to get them to follow her to the pond for ice skating. Silvestros simple story is heavy on cheese puns likely to sail past younger listeners, but Whites charming illustrations, with their miniaturist sensibility and cozy wood-toned textures, will have little ones hunting through the pages for details of the field-mouse lifestyle and dcor.
